It was a little dirty when we showed up and the furniture/kitchen items have been well loved. Other than that, no complaints. ##### Sabrina M. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Melony M. 4 Jun 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Great location, subpar cleanliness The house itself is ok- shower door in master bedroom does not close all the way and neither TV in the bedrooms would connect to the internet. I contacted the property manager about this issue and the response I got was to restart the modem and if that didnt work he/she " had no idea". The primary problem was the uncleanness of the property. There was visible trash on the floor which I swept upon arriving, the rug had not been vacummed- there were plastic beads and food bits that I swept up and personal care items left in the guest bathroom. The door of the guest bathroom was very dirty and the bathmat was visibly covered in sand- I cleaned both of these as well. One of the top bunkbeds was left unmade and I found the bedding and 2 towels damp in the dryer. Lastly, I picked up a supposedly clean towel that had been folded and placed on the dresser as if ready to use and it was wet- not just damp, but actually wet. So we washed the linens before we used them to ensure they were clean. It appeared that perhaps someone started cleaning but for whatever reason did not finish. The initial impression put a damper on the stay. On the upside- location is great and price is reasonable. ##### Melony M. Stayed 4 nights in May 2025
